What's New in Child Care and Early Learning?

This year’s theme “WE CREATE A BRIGHTER FUTURE” reminds us all of the important role early childhood educators and child care workers play in building strong and supported children, families and communities. Please consider giving thanks to the ECE's and Child Care Workers in your life.

The Child Care and Early Years Act, 2014 (CCEYA) came into effect on August 31, 2015. This legislation replaced the outdated Day Nurseries Act (DNA) and established new rules governing child care in Ontario. Many of the new provisions will strengthen compliance and health and safety in child care settings, and help parents make informed choices about their options.
